The investment is supported with a HUF 625 mln European Union grant. The plant is scheduled to open in Q2 2015, and will have a capacity to generate 4.5 GWh of clean electricity, while also creating 4 new jobs, managing director Tibor Szabados told MTI.
The plant will use by-products and waste from local livestock farms as fuel to produce an annual 2.2 million cubic meters of biogas, substituting 0.71 million cubic meters of natural gas.
In line with projections, the electricity produced by the plant would be sold to MAVIR, while the heat energy will be used locally to heat greenhouses. The 18,700 cubic meters of biological manure produced each year will go to farmers and will replace artificial fertilizers.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
